1) What was your FIRST video game console?
Atari...though I didn't get serious into gaming until I got my NES.
2) Name a few games you played on said console.
River City Ransom, Code Name Viper, Super Mario Brothers 3, Super Dodgeball...
3) Excluding handhelds, how many VG consoles do you own presently?
Atari, NES, Saturn, Dreamcast, PSX, PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360...so 9.
4) Were you a Street Fighter nut? Any character in particular?
Oh yes. Love to use Dee Jay in Super Turbo, Adon in the alpha series, and Urien in Third Strike.
5) Do you think Capcom is a FUCKING awesome company with kickass character designs?
Yea, I like Capcom a lot. I probably own more games by them then any other company.
6) Here's the scenario.. You had some friends over and you all ate FRIED CHICKEN! After the meal you all decide to play some video games. As your friend reaches for a controller you notice his/her hands are very "greasy." Are you the type that would insist they wash their hands before pawing the controller, or is it no big deal?
Just have them wipe their hands on a napkin or something.
7) What's your favorite RPG/Action RPG? I will allow a second and third fave if you insist.
I don't really care for RPGs...
8) Do you prefer 2D games or 3D games?
I like both, but 2d has that awesome charm to it, especially when it comes to fighters.
9) Are you an SNK fan?
Yes. I like SNK, though more for the Fatal Fury series than anything else. I'm not that huge on KOF, but I still like it.
9) Are you good at DDR?
Nope. Played it back in high school and actually got this one kid really addicted to it. But for me it was more of a fad or the thing of the moment. I don't play it anymore.
10) Who wants to kick that dog's ass from Duck Hunt?
Eh, I was pissed more at the duck that got away :P.
11) Have you skipped out on important events in life because of video games?
I called into work once...that's about it.
12) Do you listen to video game music?
Sure. Some of those SNK arranged tracks are golden. And there are lots of great songs from games out there that are just too good not to hear again.
13) Have you ever cosplayed a VG character?
No.
14) Have you ever been in an arcade playing a fighting game, KICKING ASS, and then some 6 year old asian kid comes in and OWNS YOU??
No. Most of the time if it was a little kid, they sucked. Had a gamepro magazine with them and all.
15) Name three games you would love to see remakes of if it was done properly.
1) Super Dodgeball
2) ....
3) ....
16) Mario or Sonic?
Can't choose. I like both.
17) When a movie shows up in the theaters, let's use Spider-man as an example, are you likely to buy the GAME version?
Nope. I've never bought a game based on a movie and most likely never will. I did, however, rent Kung Fu Panda just to see what it was like (okay, okay, it was because of Po).
18) What is your LEAST favorite genre of video games? (ex. fighting, sports, shooters, etc.)
It's a toss up between simulation sports and RPGs.
19) Is there a game out there that you feel was unique and didn't get enough love?
Maybe not unique, but I always thought Timelapse for the PC was a pretty cool game.
20) Have you ever verbally abused a game because you couldn't beat one of the levels and/or bosses?
Can't remember a specific case, but I probably did, especially when I was younger.
21) Do you own any VG apparel?
No.
22) What are your thoughts on the live-action Super Mario Bros movie?
Just weird. It's so goofy that's it's entertaining I guess. But as something based on Mario, way off.
23) On that note, what did you think about the live-action Street Fighter movie?
Horrible. Just...ug, no comment.
24) Who's hottest out of the KOF chicks?
I guess Blue Mary or Angel?
25) Do you say "old-school" a lot when you're having a VG conversation with others?
Honestly, I don't get to talk about games much with people, so I never have the chance ;).
26) Have you ever lent someone a game and they returned it to you damaged?
Yes...which is why I will never lend my games out ever again. One time I had a kid return the game to me not only broken, but his sister scribbled all over the case.
27) Do you own any imported games?
Oh yes. Lots.
28) Are you ready for this meme to be over, or could you keep going?
Keep 'em coming.
29) In this scenario, let's pretend you're going to get a video game tattoo! What would you get and where? This can be simple or elaborate.
Not a tattoo person...
30) Have you ever cried after you beat a game? If so why?
Not that I can think of. Though I have yelled in a fit of joy :P.
